User talk:KeyStroke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Attention, all who edit Wikipedia:
I have become disgusted with the predominantly Liberal POV of the "community" of those who actively edit and maintain Wikipedia. Any Conservative (such as myself) who attempts to conteract this POV and make Wikipedia more neutral and therefore more trustworthy are considered an attack on the Liberal majority. (Case in point: trying to remove porn pics from articles, see below.)
I, like a growing number of people, now consider Wikipedia to be not trustworthy as a reference. Therefore my activity on this site has drasticly been reduced as I see no point in trying anymore.
I have edited my user page, here, to preserve some entries that may be valuable if, and when, a more fair and responsible approach to editing articles is implemented.

[edit] IDEF
Hello KeyStroke. I hope I didn't upset you too much. Could you please take a look at IDEF? Your expertise would probably be invaluable there. -- Jan Hidders 11:38, 27 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Hi. Please note some conventions and see Wikipedia's style manual: (1) Begin an article with a sentence, not a dictionary-style definition. (2) Don't gratuitously capitalize words in article titles (I moved data management). (3) Highlight the title word or title phrase at its first appearance, like this. Thanks.

[edit] Gap Creationism
Excellent addition to "Gap Creationism".

[edit] Thumb twiddling
Thanks for the thumb twiddling article, it made me smile. I love it when snarky VFD commentary results in new and interesting articles. I was thinking of writing the article myself. I'm glad you beat me to the punch; you did a great job of it. • Benc • 08:31, 23 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Tithe
Good work. Now someone (not necessarily you) should prune the external links. I can't do it, unfortunately. [[User:Poccil|Peter O. (Talk)]] 22:42, Sep 24, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Data Management
Sounds like a good project, and wiki badly needs more articles on it. Bye for now, --ShaunMacPherson 01:36, 25 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Vote
A word of advice - (you should find this useful in life) saying that a wonans tits are small is almost as bad as saying her ass is big! Theresa Knott (The torn steak) 05:39, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I've added an end date of 1 month to you vote on the clitoris pic. In my experience, if you don't have an end date, these things drag on for ever, and nothing gets settled. A month is plently long enough IMO for all interested parties to express an opinion but feel free to change it if you disagree.Theresa Knott (The torn steak) 05:28, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I returned because I seen you messages on my 'talk page.' thanks for you support key stroke.--198 23:46, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
[edit] Revisiting clitoris
Are you still active? If you are, would you mind visiting 198's talk page and letting me know whether you'd be interested in working towards a resolution of the issue of the image there? Dr Zen 05:42, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Need viewpoints like yours
I agree that Wikipedia has a disproportionate number of liberals who edit; however, it is important that all views are represented. Please reconsider staying (contrary to your comment on Jimbo's talk page). Trödel|talk 23:28, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- I concur you are a really good user Keystroke...It's a shame you let a bunch of Liberals push you around :( --198 03:19, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Distributed data store
I saw this was linked as one of your interests. Just wanted to drop a line that I've been working on Distributed data store a bit and that I've added to Talk:Distributed data store some questions about the origin of the term. anthony 11:54, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] JM copyvio
KeyStroke- I've just been trying to clean the POV out of Joyce Meyer, but then realized the page was all originally copied straight from her official website. Did you get permission to do this? If so, note it on the page. I've slapped a big copyvio on there in the meantime. --Staecker 15:23, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you
Thank you for starting what will hopefully become the data management Wikiproject (Category_talk:Data_management).
Wikipedia certainly does have imperfections. I hope you continue to assume good faith and, at least occasionally, fix mistakes. There's certainly far too many for me to correct by myself :-). --DavidCary 02:21, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] John Zachman
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the John Zachman article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! Quaere verum 21:02, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Monty Hall problem
Hi - Thanks for admitting your error at talk:Monty Hall problem. I apologize if I came across as arrogant or condescending (neither of which was my intent). Reading your talk page I gather you haven't had an entirely satisfactory experience as a Wikipedia editor. I hope this experience does not further disillusion you. I think Hydnjo's suggestion to watch this page and help others come to an understanding of it might be a good one. If you'd like to talk about this (or anything else) please don't hesitate to contact me. -- Rick Block (talk) 05:07, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikis for witnessing
I found your beliefs page enlightening. I'm sorry that you've been so frustrated with the lack of tolerance on your opinions. I, too, have been studying the various Christian wikis and even developed a chart of the better ones. Finding a site that is innovative, tolerant, and active has been a challenge, but I do considerate it a Christian witnessing challenge, both with other believers as well as non-believers! Did you end up contributing to Wikibooks Christian Theology at all? (I'm watching this page, so you can reply here.) --J. J. 15:12, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

- I have gotten rusty on editing wiki's and have done very little editing since I decided to cease being an active member. KeyStroke 05:35, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
